Welcome to Trading Rite, the easy stock trading guide written by a former Wall Street stockbroker. Learn how to trade stocks and options on the stock market in THREE EASY STEPS:

• FIRST: Learn how to use fundamental analysis in order to pick better stocks. This involves researching the company's news headlines, earnings, analyst ratings and market sentiment.

• SECOND: Learn how to use technical analysis in order to pick better entry and exit points. This will allow you to take advantage of market fluctuations, which is more important today, because the market is so volatile and stocks will have very wide swings. There are always great buying opportunities, such as pullbacks, which are more frequent and more pronounced than ever before.

• THIRD: Learn how to use an exit strategy - a pre-determined price that you will exit your position. With all of the advanced trading platforms out there today, it is very easy to set up a trailing stop to protect your downside, and also a profit exit to capture your profits on the upside. There is nothing worse than riding a stock up, just to ride it back down again, and end up losing your money when you could have profited from the trade.

For help with basic stock trading terms, start with Stock Trading 101.
